The Grand Sesann sofa celebrates the centenary of Gianfranco Frattini’s birth with a special re-edition, defined by a renewed material and chromatic identity that reinterprets Milanese sartorial elegance in a contemporary key, through refined details and artisanal craftsmanship. An icon of the 1970s that embodies a new way of living, the Grand Sesann sofa returns in a limited re-edition of 100 pieces that goes beyond celebration, bringing the vision of one of the great Masters of Italian design into the present. Its sensual, welcoming seats envelop the body in the softness of corduroy velvet, while the tubular metal frame is upholstered in leather and enriched with visible stitching, in a palette entirely expressed in warm shades of brown that enhance both elegance and materiality.
Tacchini
